    x86/vsyscall/64: Explicitly set _PAGE_USER in the pagetable hierarchy · 49275fef
    Andy Lutomirski 提交于
    The kernel is very erratic as to which pagetables have _PAGE_USER set.  The
    vsyscall page gets lucky: it seems that all of the relevant pagetables are
    among the apparently arbitrary ones that set _PAGE_USER.  Rather than
    relying on chance, just explicitly set _PAGE_USER.
    
    This will let us clean up pagetable setup to stop setting _PAGE_USER.  The
    added code can also be reused by pagetable isolation to manage the
    _PAGE_USER bit in the usermode tables.
